Freezing Buttermilk

April 21, 2008

I use buttermilk quite often in pancakes, biscuits, and cornbread. I do not always use up a whole carton though before it goes bad. I have learned that buttermilk freezes very well. I place it in containers and place on the door of my freezer. The containers I use hold one cup. I like that [...]
